Chef instructor Ron Rosnetreter has found a new passion in the past couple of years — his bees on the roof. This fundraising dinner will be in support of the on-going longevity of his bees. The dress code will be semi formal and you are encouraged to dress in black and yellow.

GUEST POST by David Masurat

I wanted to let you know about a fundraising dinner that Culinary Arts, in collaboration with local beekeepers, is putting on for March 1, 2013. We are doing this to raise funds for the upkeep of the Bees at Thompson Rivers University and hopefully some bursaries. The menu will be highlighting the use of honey in the dishes and also using local foods. It sounds fabulous! The ticket price will be $50.00 and you will receive a four course meal. If you can join us we?d love to have you. The website for ordering tickets is:
Bees on The Roof Fundraiser.

Here is the Menu:

Walnut and Honey Soup

Sablefish Glazed with Honey and Soy
Textures of heirloom carrots

Dominion Creek Ranch Lamb
Cooked three ways and served with honey and mustard scented jus

Pre-Dessert
Earl grey and TRU honey sorbet with hazelnut cr?me fraiche

The Land of Milk and Honey
Rice pudding scented with local honey and milk with spelt mousse

David Masurat is President of the Kamloops Beekeepers. “Kamloops Beekeepers have many years of experience in all aspects of honey production. They share this knowledge through meetings on the 3rd Wednesday of every second month at 7:00pm at Thompson Rivers University and at field days throughout the year.”
